He has an office. He is assistant to the mail clerks who run between Baltimore and Cumberland. What his duties are we are not informed. ALL merchants, traders, hotel and boarding house keepers who have not already done so, will do well to bear in mind" that to-day is the last day for procuring license and listing the semi-annual purchase tax.

Capt. Ashe wields a fluent pen and we wish him God-speed in the enterprise. OUR friend of the Kinston Journal is informed that the MESSENGER always takes pleasure in crediting items appropriated from the Journal, and Bro. Harper has no doubt observed this. The two little briefs referred to 1 by our cotemporary, (badly murdered as they were)we picked up as they were going the rounds of our exchanges, we having overlooked them in the Journal, and hence the omission of the proper credit.

Medal Lime, extra article, for sale by B. M. PRIVETT Co. OBITUARY. We are called upon to-day to perform a sad and painful duty in announcing the death of MrS.

BERTHA STROUSE, wife of our friend and townsman Augustus Strouse, which mournful event took place at their residence in this town on Monday the 7th at 1 o'clock P. after but a brief illness of two weeks a species of typhoid fever that in spite of the most skillful treatment and the tenderest care and attention proved fatal. Mrs. Strouse was born in the State of Georgia, but in early childhood had moved with her parents to Albion, N. where she resided until scarcely ten months ago when she came here the happy bride of Mr.

Strouse; and a more loving, devoted couple it would have been difficult to find. Little did we dream then in welcoming her that it would fall to our lot to write this obituary of her, but alas! In the midst of life we are in On the 17th of October, she would have reached her 20th birthday, and her life has been as beautiful and cloudless as a summer day; the very picture of health. Death, at best, is seldom a welcome visitor, but when he comes to cut down in the very bloom ot health and best enjoyment of life, it is indeed sad, and great tears of agony and sorrow well up in the hearts of many friends, while expressions of the protoundest sympathy and grief find utterances throughout this community. Her amiability and gentleness were proverbial; extremely kind-hearted, she enjoyed the love and esteem of all who knew her. During her illness, in the absence of relatives, Mrs.

Strouse was constantly attended by kind and sympathizing ladies of this community, and most tenderly cared for until she sank into the darkness of dread eternity. All that a devoted husband, kind friends and medical skill could do was done. Her heart-stricken parents arrived here Monday evening in summons of a telegram, but only find that Death had done its fatal world and that their beloved child was no of this earth. The community generally, partakes of their grief, while to her loving husband, who is plunged in the greatest bereavement, go forth the sincerest emotions of sorrow and condolence. On Tuesday morning the remains were conveyed to Albion, N.

accompanied by the afflicted husband, father and mother, and to day, just exactly ten months since she assumed the marriage vow there, all that is earthly of her 1s returned, to be consigned to the Albion cemetery, while her spirit is rejoicing the dawn-light of a glorious and happy eternity. WE were pleased to greet Gen. Robert Ransom and his very courteous assistant, Mr. Reid Whitford, in town on Tuesday. They left here shortly after on a sounding expedition down the Neuse, for which purpose they brought boats and the necessary implements with them.

The General reports making all possible headway in the river improvement work and it will not be many weeks before his force will appear near Goldsboro. We are requested to give notice that a number of young ladies and gentlemen of our community will give an entertainment at the Town Hall, this (Thursday) evening for the benefit of the Young Men's Christian Association. Performance to begin at 8:45 p. m. The cause is a good one, and we hope the laudable efforts of the ladies and gentlemen will be appreciated and that the entertainment may be most generously patronized.

WESLEYAN FEMALE INSTITUTE, STAUNTON, VA. -We take pleasure in directing attention to the advertisem*nt of this popular Seminary. It is located in one of the healthiest climates in the world. It presents attractions unsurpassed. Its buildings are homelike and elegant, grounds attractive, scenery grand.

This school is attended by boarding pupils from seventeen different States. This school requires strict economy, especially in dress. With these advantages, we are not surprised that this popular institution enjoys a national reputation and draws its pupils from all sections of the Union. See advertisem*nt. TOWARD the end of this month six planets will be prominent in the evening sky.

Venus, Mercury and Uranus may be seen in the earlier part of the evening, an hour after sunset, and Jupiter, Saturn and Mars are above the horizon before midnight. The three latter are approaching their opposition, and are consequently increasing in size and brightness. The July moon was full on the 3rd, and even yet there is only an average difference of twenty-four minutes in the time of rising, so that the midsummer evenings are flooded with silver light. On the 11th she is near Mars and Saturn. The new moon of the 19th is in conjunction with both Mercury and Uranus when two days old.

On the 22nd the loveliest conjunction of the month takes place between the moon and the fairest of the stars. MOUNT OLIVE. Dedication of the New Presbyterian Church. By Our Special Correspondent. MOUNT OLIVE, July 7, 1879.

The new Presbyterian Church at this place was dedicated on Sunday, the 6th by Rev. James M. Sprunt, D. of Kenansville. The lesson for the morning was 1st Kings, 8th chapter.

The ded- ication services were very impressive. He preached a long, but most excellent sermon, taking for his text Mathew the 25th chapter and 34th to 37th versesinclusive. The congregation in attendance was very large and unusually attentive. At night Rev. B.

F. Marable of Goldsboro, conducted the services, and preached a very interesting sermon. He will preach here again to-night and also to-morrow night. The church after being finished gives a very neat appearance, and adds materially to the looks of our little town, which is slowly steadily increasing both in size and population. Our friend John F.

Engle, the bald pitched his tent in our midst about six weeks ago, and has had just as much work as he could attend to during his stay with us. Mr. Engle is a fine artist, and second to none in the State. He leaves in a day or so for his home in Raleigh, where he will spend a few weeks with his family, from thence he will return and pitch his tent in Clinton for a while. We hate very much to see him leave.

Success to you "John" everywhere you The crops in this section are very fair and promising thus far, though rain is much needed. Home production at less cost. Go one, go all, ye farmers with your best grain to Arrington's mill where you can get first quality of flour at much less cost than you have to pay for Northern and Western brands of inferior quality. THE SEASIDE. The Season at Beaufort---Further Particulars Concerning the Sad Disaster, BEAUFORT, N.

July 7, 1879. Our little town by the sea, was enlivened on the glorious 4th by an excursion from your town, under the management of Messrs. Hollowell and Peterson, and we say to them come again. At the Atlantic Hotel can be found Mr. B.

L. Perry, the proprietor, who 19 ably assisted by a well-drilled corps of assistants. Mr. Geo. A.

Hatsel, the caterer, has been at the 66 Atlantic" so long that he has become a fixture, and we say to our upcountry friends, come down and George will always be on hand to fill the inner man. At the Ocean View Hotel' may be found Mr. James H. Pool, the proprietor, he is the very prince of good fellows, and never tires in trying to please his guests. His hotel is small, but his heart is large, and the rare is as good as at any house in the town; try the Ocean View and you will be satisfied.

Miss Sarah Davis can still be found on Front street, facing the water. Her boarding house is just what it has always been, first-class; and with the boarding houses of Miss Belle Pigott and Mrs. Wm. Felton, all who visit us can get good accommodations. On the 4th of July, Capt.

Appleton Oaksmith of Hollywood, in this county, met with a terrible accident in the capsizing of his boat while coming to Beaufort, resulting in the drowning of four of his children: Misses Bessie and Corinne, aged 17 and 19, and Pauline and Millie, aged 10 and 12. The accident occurred SOOn after the Goldsboro excursion arrived, and threw a damper not only over the excursionists, but over our entire community. A memorial service was held at the Methodist Church on yesterday, to their memory, which was largely attended. The following ministers were present: Rev. W.

P. McCorkle, Rev. Dr. Chapman, Rev. J.

W. Jenkins, Rev. M. C. Thomas.

Our entire community are in deep sympathy with the afflicted family. Three of the bodies were recovered, and on Saturday the 5th, was taken up to Hollywood and buried in the family burying ground. The body of Miss Bessie has not yet been recovered, but friends are still searching for it. Thus has one of our happy homes been robbed of its happiness, -four beautiful, intellectual girls, full of life and promise, snatched away in the bloom of youth, and all the daugthers of a household, taken away at one time; truly, "in the midst of life, we are in death." Never in the writer's experience has it been his fortune to know a family with such bright intellects, and when we saw them robed for the tomb, our heart sank within us. In such a bereavement no earthly friend can offer consolation, none but our Heavenly Father.

But let us leave such sad scenes for our hearts sickens. The weather with us is dry and pleasant. The vessels to load watermelons are now arriving. The first load will be shipped on to-morrow. We learn that there will be some 25 or 30 vessel loads shipped North this season.

This branch of trucking is becoming to be quite an item with our people, and quite remunerative. We have a beautiful steam yacht the 6 Oklahoma," running about the harbor and connecting with the trains. People who are afraid of sail boats should give her a trial. More anon. DUPLIN COUNTY MEDICAL SOCIETY.

For the Messenger. Pursuant to previous notice the Duplin County Medical Society met at the Courthouse in Kenansville, on Monday, July 7th, with the President, Dr. H. W. Faison, in the chair.

On motion, Dr. G. M. Roberts was received as a member of the Society. The members of the Society with the co-operation of G.

W. Ward, chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, then in accordance with an act of the last Legislature, proceeded to elect a Superintendent and Secretary of the Board of Health for the county. Upon ballot, Dr. J. D.

Roberts of Magnolia, received the unanimous support of the members for both positions. Some discussion then arose in regard to the use of alcoholic stimulants, whereupon, Dr. H. W. Faison was called upon and made some interesting remarks.

Dr. Seawell was appointed to report at next meeting upon the pernicious effects of tobacco upon the human system. Upon request, Dr. J. D.

Roberts produced an able and well-written paper upon the etiology of typhoid fever. Dr. A. J. Jones of Kenansville, was elected Vice-President of the Society, to fill a vacancy.

On motion, the Society adjourned to meet at Kenansville on the Ist Tuesday in October next. V. N. SEAWELL, Secretary. STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.

Newberne Nut Shell of the star Inet. afternoon, Mr. Geo. F. Dail's store, During the thunder storm, yesterday corner South Front and Craven streets, was struck by lightning.

The electricity seems to have come from an easterly direction, carrying away a small portion of the combing on the rear part of the building, spreading over the roof, entering one of the windows in the third story, fronting Trent river, and passing out the identical window in front which was struck by lightning, and almost completely demolished two or three years ago. The two windows were badly shattered, large splinters, portions of the sash and much of the glass from the front window being thrown out in the middle of the street. A number of gentlemen were sitting in front of the store, immediately under the window through which the electricity passed out, were only protected from serious damage, probably, by an awning, constructed of wood. One of the gentlemen stated to us that the report was terrific. Two colored men were passing near the store and were thrown to the ground by the shock.

A lady in a dwelling house near by was so seriously shocked that the attention of a physician was required. A hittle girl in another residence was also slightly shocked. Col. Tom. Taylor was standing on the street several hundred yards from the store and was whirled around on his heel and dashed to the ground from the force of the electric fluid.

In fact, we learn, nearly every person in the neighborhood was more or less affected. Zephyr and Shetland Wool Shawls, only $1.75 at M. E. Castex MERITORIOUS. -Everybody now speaks in terms of highest praise of flour abtained at Arrington's Mill.

Just received another beautiful line of IMPORTANT. The Newbern Democrat says: "The last Legislature passed an act, authorizing the construction of a road or public highway, from some point within a mile of lower Quaker bridge on Trent river, in Jones county, to some point within two 'miles of Tar landing, on the New river in Onslow county; and empowered as special commissioners, to attend to the execution of this work, the following gentlemen: Henry S. Nunn, Jacob F. Scott and F. G.

Simmons on the part of Jones county and E. L. Franks, Henry Saunderlin and Christopher Stephens on the part of Onslow conty. They are authorized to apply to the Directors for 25 able bodies convicts, to be employed in the construction of the road. The distance to be traversed by this road, it is supposed, will not exceed twelve miles; six miles of the road will be through swamps lands, the remaining distance in high lands.

The importance and convenience of this road will be very great; persons living in the vicinity of Tar landing in Onslow county, are compelled in seeking a market in Newbern with productions of their farms, to ride 45 miles; but upon the completion of this road, they will only travel the distance of 12 or 14 miles to get their cotton and naval stores to water navigation on the Trent river, there they will be met by regular steamer. We are glad to know that this enterprise is in the hands of such gentlemen as the above named parties, and hope, it may be pushed to a rapid WAYNE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' COURT.

The sweet spirit of little MYRTLE E.

STANLY, the daughter of William F. and Lizzie Stanly, took its flight to the heavenly land June 16, 1879. She was born May 19, 1877, and remained just two years and 29 days to gladden the hearts of her fond parents and triends. Methinks when the angels looked over the battlements of heaven and saw the little one throwing off the earthly form and taking on the spiritual- it clinging to loving parents whose arms clasped it in the last farewell embrace heard their hearts crying out in anguish- saw the earnest look of the little one as it gazed awhile upon its parents' faces and then looked out inte the mysterious shadowy future- -methinks when they saw and heard all this anguish of the soul, they understood this great trial of separation, and lovingly obeyed the commands of Jesus who sent them down to earth to whisper words of comfort and hope to the afflicted parents and teach the litte one to plume its wings for heaven. Jesus who said while upon earth Suffer little children to come unto me" and took them in his arms and blessed them, also receives them in the mansions in heaven which he has prepared.

Our dear little Myrtle may be permitted to come to earth sometimes as an invisible ministering spirit to the loved ones she left on the shores of time. She was a gift of God and was taken to bind the love and affection of those that loved her to God and heaven." Let us all strive to meet her there where there will be no more sickness, sorrow and death, no more tears and separation. What though within a land where aught abideth, There is no flock, "but one dead lamb is there What though a stern relentless tate decideth No household is but has one vacant chair. Let us be trustful, it is not the spirit That darkens in the gloom which we call death; Some higher joy we surely must inherit Beyond the confines of this mortal breath. He knows the heart: our every woe He beareth; He hears us when the broken spirit pleads, Our crown of thorns his bleeding forehead shareth, Through sorrows night he leads us, 0, He leads." A FRIEND.
