The excursion to Greensboro on Saturday last,1 by the colored folks, was largely attended, about two icar loads being left at home for want of room to accommodate them. A few; of those who failed to get on the train took ad vantage of the adage, "a fool and his money soon parts," and -hired livery turn-outs, and went anyhow, i Dr. Bahnson and friends enioved the opening of a second snecimen of the Night Blooming Cereus, on Friday night of last week. This is the fourth flower of the kind which has opened in Salem this season. They are! certain! v worth -seeing, both as a curiosity in the floral kingdom as well as their great beauty and peculiar fragrance.

C, Lin- ville Walters shot Miles McGuire, and wounded him badly in the! left lung. Then turning to John McGuire, he shot him through the heart, killkig him in stantly, without any known provocation. Three others were in company, but all being intoxicated nothing could be as certained about the cause of the affray. Fortunately, it happened near a lady s house, and she saw Walters shoot and get on his horse and leave. , He is yet at large. i On last Saturday Yanc ' Sides, col., was among the number who tailed to get a seat on "de 'scursion train" to Greensboro, and to soothe his anger he resorted to "tangle-leg' and became so demonstrative, that police officer Shepherd had to take him in charge. While under arrest he became pugilis tic and striking Mr. Shepherd, broke loose from him and ran. A leaden mes senger was sent after him but without enect, and after a little race he was re-captured and taken before the Mayor who relieved him of some five or six dol lars of the money he had intended hav ing a good time with on "de 'scursion." We learn that he was arrested again on Monday by the Sheriff, for striking the police officer, and bound over to court. I ailing to give bond he was placed where he can sing that sad refrain "In the prison cell I sit," Ac. i Peesonals.

Among the excursionists who took the train at Salisbury for Charlotte, on the 21st ult was a young man of our acquaintance whom nature has provided with feet which requires his shoe-maker to handle Nol 11 lasts 1 when making him a pair of shoes ; but on that partic ular occasion our young friend thought he would make his appearance in Char lotte with his feet neatly encased in a new pair of No. nines, and so a few days previous . to the excursion-: be had his shoe-maker to put him up as neat a job as he could turn off of a No. nine last. . In order ; that the shoes should look nice and new on his arrival at Char lotte, he left putting them on until a few moments of train time, when, after considerable squeezing he managed , to get them on. t As he walked, to the de pot he began to realize that nine into eleven went very .easy, but his putting eleven into nine , was going to cause him some trouble;'' However, he boarded the train, and when he arrived in Char lotte Sunday morning, instead of meet ing his friends with a smile, his face bore evident signa of the most agonizing pain. He was not long going from the depot to a friend's house, where he had made arrangements to spend Sunday, and the happiest moment of that young man' existence was when he performed an unheard ef feat in arithmetic and took eleven from, nine. During the day he was invited by some friends to ' take a stroll about the city, but alas, when he went to put his No. nines on he was very forcibly reminded that eleven tccuLt not go into nine any more, and while' his friends ; took i a look at the city he re mained in his quarters a sad but wiser young man, so far as wearing tight shoes was concerned. When the hour for re turning home arrived, a pair of large rub bers were borrowed for him to walk to the depot in, and placing his No. nines under his seat in the car, he rode home in his stocking feet. We bid him adieu at Salisbury, and as the train moved off the last ' we saw of our voung friend he was plodding his way homeward, bare- looted with his shoes on his shoulder. Nine will go into eleven with the greatest of ease, But to put eleven into nine requires a pow erful squeeze. Hope Centennial. The -One Hundredth Anniversary of Hope Moravian Church was celebrated on last Saturday." The early morning was cloudy with misty rain, but towards noon the sun lit up the landscape. The grove around the church was alivo with people, numbering about 2,500. Ihe morning services were opened by Rev. D. Z., Smith. Rev. James Hall read a passage of Scripture, followed by a prayer by Kev. Prof. Wurreschke. The music was given by the Salem Am teur Cornet' Band, from the Moravian Hymn Book, interspersed with selec tions, from Gospel Hymns. Rev. Dr. Rondthaler preached the Anniversary Sermon from the text: "Jesus Christ. the same yesterday, to-day and forever." The sermon was a most excellent one, commanding the undivided attention of the large concourse of people. The afternoon servfee consisted of a Lovefeast, conducted by Rev. J. B. Lineback. The Historical Address was by Rev. C. L. Rights, and Rev. R. P. Lineback read the Historical Sketch of the settlement! Revs. Jacob Faw, Joseph Miller and Petree also gave appropriate addresses. Rev. C. L. Rights closed the services. Rev. R. P. Lineback preached in the church on Sunday at 10 o'clock. uood qrder prevailed throughout. We failed to obtain the Historical Sketch read on the occasion, in time for this issue, v e copy from "Moravians in North Carolina" : van La, and Church. ... , . r . After having' undergone many priva tions and hardships, and after having surveyed other portions of the country, these heroic men rounu themselves in a pleasant and most fertile district of land 1 which they at once dedded to take possession of.. So i was thai from the 27th of December, 1752, until the ISth of January, 1873, Mm land was measured off by a Mr. W. Chutton, Sur veyor. ' This country received the name of " Wachovia," from an estate in Austria, belonging to Count Zinsendorf. The large creek flowing through the western part of this land, and corresponding to what is now called Muddy Creek, was named Dorothea, after the wife of the Count. On the 12th of October, 1653, twelve brethren from Bethlehem, Pennn trav eled southward in order to establish in Wachovia a settlement of the Brethren's Unity. Their names were as follows : Bernhard Adsm Grube, pastor; Jacob Loesh, treasurer ; Jacob Lung, garden er; Herman Loeach. miller ; Christoph Merckley, baker; Erich Ingebretson, carpenter: Hans Petersen, tailor; Hans Martin Kalberlahn, doctor and surgeon ; John Be roth, farmer; Friedrich Jacob Pfeil, shoemaker: John Lischer, far mer; Henry Feldhausen, carpenter. On the 17th of November they ar rived in their adopted countrv. where they found a hut which had been built by Hans Wagner, an early settler, and then deserted. At this house they held their first love-feasfon the evening of their arrival, while the wolves were howling all about them in the surround- ing wilderness. Aside of this but was erected a memorial stone, upon which was inscribed : Wachovia Settlement begun 17 November. 1753. The house has long since gone to ruin, and the stone has been removed to the lot of the now existing church and par sonage, where it can be seen by all that pass. This then is the commencement of the first Moravian settlement in North Carolina, and the very beginning of the viuage ox cemaoara. some twenty years back irom the present time, this place presented a much more flouriih ing aspect than now. It consists of eleven dwelling-houses, a church, a grocery and store combined, a postoffice, a blacksmith shoo, a wheelwright and a tan-yard. It is frequently visited, not only on account of its great age. but also be cause of the fine and varied scenery with which it is surrounded. In honor of Mr. Spangenberg, the creek flowing about half-way between Salem and 014 Town, and now commonly known by the name of Silas Creek, was called the Spangen-bach. Also the small branck just on this side of Winston was for merly called Peters-bach, in honor of Kev. Mr. Peter, one of the first Mora vian settlers in this countsy. um lown, August I&su. B.

They repeatedly expressed their desire of entering into a more close fellowship ' with the Moravian Brethren, and soon attached themselves to the congregation at rriodberg. But as this was an entirely German congregation, they desired to have an English Brother residing in their midst. After some years, their numbers in creased by the arrival of several Eng lish families from Carrol's Manor, Mary- una, where iJr. Joseph Powell had preached the Gospel to them for some years. These were followed by others a year or two later, all settling in the southwest corner of Wachovia tract, near the Muddy Creek.

On this dey,-the 28th of August, 1780,' two mar' nod couples, viz.. John and Mary Fad gett, and Benjamin and Mary Chitty, were added to the congregation ; and on the 24th of September the first chil dren, William Pettyoord and Elizabeth r.ilrod, were baptized. The holy com munion was administered for the first time on October 14th, to eight communi cants. . : - The burial-ground at Ilope was laid out during the same year.

Regular prairies are not found in Southwest Missouri, and what they call prairie are lands destitute of large trees but grown up in clusters of brush or what we would designate as under growth.

The annual burnings created in order to induce the grass to grow, have the tendency to re tard the growth of tho timber W ire fences are popular and manv of wie citizens ure using mem, ana these, when once finished will last for many years as the posts are the only wood about them, and they too far apart to give tire communication Irom one to the other. Some have living posts and these are a spienuiu institution, ihey are raised by transplanting scions of locust ana catalpa just where they are to serve, and by the time yeur rail fence fcould require repairs the wires can be attached to them. T . a i ne enure country produces crass ample lor ail stock let out. A man s horses cost him nothing when not in use ; he has only to bell them and let them go. It was quite a novel thins to ... -- w near many oeus or as manv tones, fast ened to the necks of the horses, which means the owners have to detect their own stock. Once in a while it haprens that one strays off. I rode half a day hunting one whose bell 1 thoueht I could reooKnise, but failed to find her. which was mortifying, to me as I had in the morning boasted of a sensitive ear. The soil is o! a dark cast, being loam. with occasionally a preponderance of sand and gravel, and is very productive. My bout's crop of corn lat year aver aged nrty bUHhroi per acre.

Cisterns are extensively used, and the water is pronounced to be the purest and health test when properly cared for. A cistern does not necessarily imply warm and disagreeable water. I used some and found it pleasant and palatable, Mr. Euckensderfer, who was to have met me in St. Louis, lives in this neigh borhood, whicn is known by the name of Oakland, but he himself is in charge of a corps of surveyors in the JuacJt II ills, Wyoming Territory, and his letter notifying bis family or my expected ar rival was detained, so I spent some time in looking around Lebanon.

We spent several days in prospecting as to temporal interest, the result of which I have substantially given. The rospect in spiritual matters were equal y gratifying. Many of the families were viaited, and extended all the hos pitality at their command. I meet familiea from various portions of the world who have come to Missouri to regain lot health and to better their condition generally. One gentleman, by the name of Wedge, had come from Miehighan, near Grand Rapid, and he told me that before leaving hia former home he visited every part of the West where lands were for sale, and conclud ed, all things considered, that Missouri was the best he had seen. I met some persons who came to Missouri ten years ago, worth nomine, and now are well oFT, having homes paid for, and stock of all kinds. As Sunday was so near at hand when I arrived we made no at tempt to have service, and as a meeting of the neighbors had been appointed for 3, P. M., to arrange for commencing a Sunday School, we went there instead. I was asked to address them, and did so, and also' made an appointment for preaching at the same place (a school house) on the following Knnday. This was on the same day that Man b held was destroyed by a terrible cyclone. On our way home we saw and hoard the dreadful monster, although thirty-tv-five miles away. We did not think that it was causing the destruction that it really did. The day after, several of us were walking across a field when one found a piece of painted board, evident ly brought by some means from a dis tance, and one remarked, "There was a storm somewhere yesterday." And on Tuesday the mail brought word of the stricken town. Pieces of good, and clothing, etc., were found, and I have here a piece ar a shingle that I picked up in the woods which was brought from the place a distance of thirty miles. On Saturday I went to Lebanon, and Mr. Ellis, who had been appointed superintendent of the hospital, kindly offered to pay my fare on the Railroad if I wished to visit the scene. I accent ed the invitation, and at 2. P. M.. we boarded the cars. Never did descriptive lancuare fail me so completely a when aked to tell how Ihings appeared. Where there had once been raws of houses not a vestir e was left to mark the place ; the ground was swept clean t Umbers from the houses were carried hundreds of yard. 1 came to a place where men were ex huming Postoffice matter and confec tions, and was asked if it looked possi ble for a man to be buried under the ruins and net get hurt. I thought not, but was told by the same man that he had been, and had been brought out 1880.- 1880. SPRING IfiD SniIICR. COODG.
