LThe great week of the carnival hns passed, with all ltd pleasures and wonderful sights. Great crowds of people from all parts of the county thronged the city the entire week, ti/Hmuu'* in tha troftBiirv nt th*? S|9f show men. The earn! vnl as a show, was, we believe, the cleanest end best of the kiDd ever In ibe city. We mean by cleaueat, squarely and nicely conducted, devoid of oatoide gamblers, and KNgi hangers on to cheat and defraud the people. Everybody we heard speak of it seemed Wp fully satisfied. This may all be true, hut the W main qaestaln is, was the city benefitted ftf nanclaily? Did the Dauvshters of the Confederacy get 1 heir "dues" Iron) a show that monopolized the public squareand had lull sway of the city for a whole week? Or did the "carnival set" outwit the city and the Daugh ters, and get off with the greater part, of the I leant 82,000^?far more we kucuj limn whs brought and left in tbe city by ibe people who were drawn by tbe carnival. We wish we could bave bad tbe time to havegotten actual figures on tbe above which would have given l our readers facts and not surmises In theca->e. L We will yet give them more light if possible. k the qceex of ti1e carnival. B; Tbe contest, "who should be Queen," was f between tbe following young ladles : . Miss Wlnton Taggart, . MIbs Eva Teague, Miss Mary Hill, Miss Nettle Brunson, Miss Lorena Beacharn, Miss Marie Gary, Miss Lucia Parker. ^ The lady of tnis number recelviug the higbA est number of votes sbould be Queen of the Carnival. Tbe total number or voles cast were 4,000, Mist Taggart receiving tbe greatest rnumoer oy llie uirtjuni.jr U1 i.ivu u?ci and above all ber companions, was crowDed Queen of tbe Carnival. Miss Taggart is of tbe brunette type, tall and slender, with a graceful and Imposing carriage, aud as she ascended to tbe Court House veranda surrounded by tbe following pretty young ladles as her maldtt, all attired In full evening dress of white wltb op .*a cloaks about their shoulders made up a beautiful ploture of "royal persou ages." Maids: , Miss Virginia Garobrell, Miss Corrle Hoillogsworih, Miss Florence Kirby, Miss Bessie Miller, Miss Blanche Reld, I Miss Nannie Blount. The Queen or tbe Carnival was crowned by "tbe Man In the Moon," after which Senutoi" Wo, N. Graydon In a neat little address couched In words most appropriate to tbe oc caslon, presented the prize?a ladies beautilui gold watch?when tbe "royal party" at one* came In toucb with the "common" people and with tbem took In tbe evening program as presented by tbe carnival. The queen Is happy, tbe carnival has gone, tbe publicsquare Is cleaned of all rubbisb,and tbe old totVQ looks itself once more. THE TED. E. FAUST MINSTRELS. kit is said after a storm, then a calm, but not . bo in tbis day and time, for the carnivul bad Just closed when the celebrated "Faust Minstrels" appeared In tbe Court House Saturday evening undei tbe management of Prof. Jas.

He was actively Identified with the military establishment of the State and posseted the confidence of his commanding officer, and the respect and affection of his comradeM in arms. In his newspaper work he whs painstaking and tireless. It was his ambition to tie a great newspaper man, aud he would have achieved the distincti?iu he coveted but for hU iititimplv tukintr off 11 Kppma no there nre so many others who might have been spared. but in marvelling at the tn.vstertesof life and death we must be thunkful that In this young man's brief existence here there was high aspiration and good example.
