Our Representatives arc certainly in a "strait betwixt two" in the matter of choosing the Magistrates for the several townships, as in nearly all there arc two candidates, good clever, popular gentlemen, and in Brightsville two brothers, winch deepens the dilemma of a eltoicc. The Representatives will no doubt meet this week and settle thc matter "by drawing straws, which is the only safe way out. Given Himself Up. Rainoy Lamb, colored, who, it will bc remembered, killed Jeff Towns send, colored, on Christmas eve of 1895, near Mr. James F. David's north of town and made his escape, ? came in yesterday morning and gave himself up to Sheriff Green and confessed to tho killing of Town send. Lamb has been wandering about in different states sinco thc deed was done, and said he would not havo left, but was persuaded to do so. He claims that the killing was justifiable. He is now in jail and will have a hearing at tho next term of court. A Sad Calamity. The sad news was received herc last week of thc burning of tho resi dence of Mr. W. J. Newby at Nash ville, N. C., together with nearly eycrything in it-saving only a lit tle bedding, two bedsteads and an extra suit for four of thc older chil dren.
