' It is our duty again to record the death
of another good citizen. After a long and
painful illness with - consumption, Mr.
Wm. A. McFall died at his home, a few
miles South of this city, last Sunday
morning. Mr. MoFall was in the 47th
year of his age, and was born and reared
in tbhi County, where he has always re?
sided. He was a gentleman of a very
quiet disposition, and'was highly esteemed
by a wide circle of friends, all of whom
deeply regret his death.' He was twice
married, and a wife and four children are
left to mourn bis death. He was an ex?
emplary member of the .Presbyterian
Church, and was also a member in good
standing of the .Masonic fraternity and the
Knights, of Honor. His remains were
interred' in the Presbyterian cemetery,
this city, on Monday, Bev. Dr. Frierson
conducting the funeral services.
Earper's Bazar gives the following
thoughts for Thanksgiving Day: "Are we
poor? We might be beggars. Are we
beg tzars ? We might be lepers. Are we
lepers? Our sickness might be unto
death ? Is it unto death ? We have yet a
heaven beyond. For - all- let us give
thanks. Thanks surely if we are in health
of body and mind, and even in illness
there is much reason and occasion to be
found for a grateful heart. Has trouble
come to us now? It might be worse.
Are we atone? There is poorer company
than ourselves to be had. Have we lost
our dear es: und best? They, at any rate,
are nut here to suffer. Has the year dealt
crushing blows in business? It has not
taken away also our power and will to
work. Have we work? Then forthat
and all the rest give thanks agaiu. Give
thanks that- we live and breathe and have
our being in this world of wonder and
light and beauty."
- The St. Paul (colored) Baptist congre?
gation of this city has for some time past
been trying to agree upon a pastor for the
coming year, but it seems impossible for
them to do bo. It will be remembered
that nearly a year ago a large number of
the members left the Church on account
of not being able to agree upon a pastor
and organized Church No. 8. The. same
thing is about to be repeated, and Church
No. 3 will probably be organized. A few
days ago the officers of the Church met
and, after wrangling for some time, the
majority of them decided upon a pastor, a
colored divine from North Carolina, and
adjourned to make a report to the congre?
gation at a future day, at which. time the
formal call would be extended to the new
preacher. The minority of the officers,
however, were bitterly opposed to this
preacher, and when the time for holding
the Congregational meeting arrived, they
had secured the keys of the Church, and
refused to let the meeting be hold there.
The followers of the North Carolina
divine were pot to be outwitted, so. they
departed from the Church premises qui?
etly and held their meeting at another
place. This faction claim to have the
majority of the members of the Church
with them, and they threaten to form
another Church if the majority do not
come over to them and surrender the
keys of the Church. The matter has oc?
casioned considerable excitement among
our colored population, and further de?
velopments are awaited with anxiety.

On last Friday we notioed several par
ions who were digging potatoes with a
L Tge fire in the patch, It was something
that many of us never experienced be?
fore, but it looked like the ground would
bo covered with snow before morning,
and great fear was entertained that the
potato would sustain great damage.
Now is one of. the busiest times in the
year with the farmers, as they have cot?
ton to pick, wheat to saw, potatoes to dig,
corn' to shuck, and hogs to kill. Nearly
everybody has a hbg to kill. We notice

A Sop to the Solid South.
Washington, Nov. 21.?Senator Quay
believes that there will be a Southern
man in President Harrison's Cabinet.
When asked about it to night, he said:
"I have not talked with Gen. Harrison
during the campaign or since the election
about the Cabinet, but I am in favor of
SUtting in a Southern man, as it would
e in l;he interest of honest government
and home rule. We don't propose to
have thejelectcral vote and the Congress?
men stolen any more, and this is one of
the first steps to prevent it. A represen?
tative Southern man, not a. carpet bag?
ger, in whom the people of the South has
confide nee, if selected for attoney general,
for instance, would do much toward
making the South feel friendly with the
new Administration."
"What do you think about the line of
Oen. Harrison's Southern policy?"
"t don't know anything about it, and
in what I have said J am not to be un?
derstood as speaking for Harrison, but I
am simply giving my own views. I used
to live in the South, and I have always
bad a friendly feeling for the Southern
people, I believe.the intelligence in the
South will join with the. intelligence of
the North."
''The putting of a Southern man in the
Cabinet is to try to break the Solid South,
I suppose ?"
"The Solid South is broken," the Sena?
tor said very pointedly.
