On Saturday night. February

These New Paintings are said to
be even better than "Revelation,"
as showing maturer study, and
more of real art. And while they
are very beautiful and instructive,
they are very entertaining and even
amusing. The Charlotte Daily Ob

Dkau Advance : Since . my
last letter to your interesting pa
per, the weather , down here has
been quite cold. Snowy, sleety,
rainy, "sloshy" and in fact, I might
say awfully disagreeable. The
roads leading from this place to
your town have been almost im
passable fbr several weeks. How
ever for the past few days I am
pleased to say, we have, had de
lightful spring like weather, and
ev erything, wears a more bril
liant and pleasant smile.
our .Legislators nave done one
good and wise deed. That was to
choose Matt W. Hansom for the
third term to represent our State
in the Senate. Matt Hansom is a
man of good qualities, and pleas
and manners. His purity of life
a lit' character, his honesty and
probity have never questioned.
Everywhere he goes, and in all the
relations of his life, especially in
the Senate Chamber he gathers
hosts of warm personal friends,
and m his own native State (Car
olina) we love him dearly. North
Carolina may well be proud of her
pure, true and patriotic statesman,
Matt W. Hansom.
Contentnea Creek has' been
higher down hern for the past few
weeks, than i t has for several years.
There is no reason why a steamer
should not be put on the route from
this place via. Snow Hill, and
hence to Newbern N. C. The idea
would be a capital one, and would
add much to the- general conve
nience of our people.
Mr. C. F. Farmer, a very inter
esting young man of this place has
been absent for several days and I
fear that he has recently located in
Wilson.

The exhibition of Mr Butts new Paintinirs
nt the Opera House last niKht. was perhaps the
first occasion in its history wh it was com-
f pletely tilled. Edwin Booth once drew a
packed house nut his crowd wa not so iarpeas
was that which assembled last nipht to see this
Panorama. It was scarcely dark before impa
tient .groups bejran iratherinjt vraiting- for ad-;
mittance and by the time the exhibition befrnn
there were no seats to lie had, aud one was sat
isfied to find trood comtortable standin? room.
It is a wonderful work on canvass ami one
must see it liefore its bcautv and its jrrandure
can be comprehended or realized and where
ever the talented younjr Artist froes. we Kiive
him the most cordial rei-omnundation and can
assure the public that, the nrnney they spend
on his entertainment, will be happily and most
profitably invested, ""d Jiot one of the vast
crowd present last night would stay away if the
exhibition were repeated'to-.niifht.
The Puljiit as well as the Press,
wherever these panoramas have
been exhibited, speak in the high
est of them.
The following is from one of Char
lotte's Ministers : :
Mr. A. L. Butt exhibited h!s new Panorama
Old Testament Scenes in the Opera-House
in Charlotte on the night of Oct- Suth, to the
largest audience ever assembli-d in the house.
The scenes show the same art in conception
and skill in execution dispiared in the other
Panorama which has universally elicited favor-
aoie criticism, ine puuuu win oe uoin in

It affords me great pleasure to speak of it in

horse with death seated thereon.

of the audience.
In the picture representing the
