Two decades ago when the State was torn asunder P( by a political revolution that array- ^ ed brother against brother and ?' friend aguinst friend an address of ** this character would have been re- ? ceived with shouts of approval, but P' to-day the temper of the people is e< different and Mr. Rlease's words *c were ill-timed and ill-advised.

Call and ~DEP Qtt, girl, Lizzie M. Cain, created consid I pen erable excitement at the time, and nist every effort was made to recover - her. Several people connected with ime the circua, and the aide shows conore nected with the circus, were arrestP*n ed, and held while every corner and the nook of the tents were searched : der for the missing child. Friends of | low the child followed the circus to the Augusta, but nothing could be Dn| heard of the missing child. This disappearance of the child ot was most peculiar. In company j with her mother and several other I der children, Lizzie, then only five ity years of age, visited the John Robinson circus one afternoon in the fall of 1879. While witnessing the the performance the absence of Lizzie ties was noted by her mother, and a Lais search was immediately instituted, can no Hding of the child ever came to the greatly distressed father and mother. 'ar* The little girl was given up as j for dead until a visit of this circus to ,rty this city during last October. With >V(J_ this circus was a young woman f whom friends of the Cain family said resembled very much some of *118 the children of that family. It was he talked about that this woman was left the girl that was kidnaped about lict thirty years ago. City Mail Car- 1 rier, a brother of the stolen girl, f nr who had not attended the circus was u9 told of this woman. Cain sought joy an interview with the woman on ' ues the circus grounds, which she read- 1 ,ts ily granted. The woman seemed not to know K"r anything much concerning her ear- 1 t? ly life. She did not know where Mlo she was born, who her mother was : jer and that she had never known her j1 mother. She said she did not 11 know whether she was kidnapped '' or not, but from her earliest recol- 1 Af- lection she had been traveling with i the Robinson circus. She said she ' ol{, did not know where she was born, ' nes ^ut thought that she was about 3 5 1 je(j years of age. She said she was | ' 3Ut known as Lizie M. Lewis by her \ ' aa_ associates in the circus. This interview impressed Cain, j1 er^ nnd he asked her to keep him pots- j. ed on her whereabouts after she i jed t*1? cjty. which she has done. !

There retired from tho office of governor ruesaay one or tne oesi public executives that 8outh Carolina has ever had?Martin P. Ansel. There have been more brilliant men, better trained orators and speakers, who have filled the office of governor of the Palmetto State; but tt is doubtful whether any ever filled the office with more vigorous grasp of things or with wider and better knowledge of mankind. When Governor Ansel went into office many there were who freely predicted that his administration _gs would be wobbly, and that his v ideas would be determined largely by popular clamor. Governor Ansel, however," gave the State a decidedly different kind of administration. He has been prompt and vigorous: he has had views of his own and they have generally been sound ones; in short he has shown himself to be fully capable of administering the State's affairs, and the period of ofur years during which he lias bceu governor will be known to future history as a time of great prosperity in South Carolina, and a period during which the , if fairs of the State were adminis- . tered with singular wisdom. Governor Ansel's two administrations have been characterized particularly by his singular ability to rill appointive offices well, and his wise and judicial use of the pardoning power. In these two matters le was generally right, hardly ever wrong. FOR 8ALK. COO acres of farm land in Moore :ounty, for sale cheap. 3 miles From Southern Pines, N. C., and about ene-eighth mile from S.
