Caution to the Public
We understand there are unprincipled
grocers and dealers who palm off on- no
way purchasers Yeast P owder in bulk, or

Powder. For the protection of house
keepers and the public generally, wo are
authorized to state that the genuine
Dooley's Yeast Powder is sold only in
cans, securely labeled. . - The fac-simile
signature of Dooley & Beotheb, the
manufacturers, is plainly printed on each
label.

will be tr.ken up to go towards . the erec

colored Episcopalians in that city.
t: Superior Court.
The case of Robert Smith, charged with
the murder of James Murphy, removed
from Bladen, came up for trial this morn
ing. The entire forenoon was consumed
in. getting a jury, when Court adjourned
to 3 o'clock. The following comprise the
jary:
Luhr Voliers; II. U. Grant, W. H. Cot
ton, colored, Robert Ilenning, W. A.
ViUsen, Sam'l C. Nixon, colored, E. G.
Whitney, Isaac B. Northrop, W. L.
Jacobs, Thos. Browuellc, colored R. M.
Mclnttre, Elijah Lane, colored.
A large number of witnesses will be ex
amined and the case excites a great deal
of interest.
All Saints' Day.
To-morrow, the first of November, . is
celebrated in the Episcopal Church as the
Festival of all Saints. The ' t arm ''All
Saints'" is construed to mean all good and
holy persons who have died in the faith
and were distinguished for their holiness,
and the object in view in commemorating
them is to honor God by calling to mind
their virtues and to encourage Christians
by their good examples. On this Festival
day the Churches are generally draped with
solemn insignia and here with us the grey
drooping inoss, relieved here and there by
a few Colorless flowers, is generally the
adornment used in the body of the
church. The services are solemn bunot
sad and beautiful and impressive, foif 4t is
not an occasion when sorrow should! be
felt ; the : Church docs not mourn! for
those who died the death of the righteous
and who now rest in Paradise awaiting
the sound of the archangel's trumpet.
Hon. A, M. Waddell.
It is a fortunate thing for the poople of
the entire South, as well as of this State,
that Hon. Alfred M. Waddell, the Repre
sentative in Congress from this district
has been . made Chairman of the Postal
Committee in the House. Mr. Speaker
Randall baa shown remarkable discern
ment. Col. Waddell has made himself
thoroughly conversant with the subject,
and we do not think that any other mem
ber of the present Congress could be found
who would fill the position more acepta
bly than wili he. He has carefully
studied that branch of the public service
and hifl views thereon have been eagerly
sought for as was sufficiently attested last
Spring, when a communication from him,
published in this paper, was read all over
the country, oho of the applicants for a
copy of the paper containing it having
been Postmaster! James, of New York,
and the 'communication itself having af
terwards been published in the New York
World with a warm editorial endorsement.
In this instance it is evident that Col.
Vaddell is the right man in exactly the
right place.
A Tragedy in Rockingham.
We learn of a tragedy which occurred
at Rockingham yesterday morning. The
jailer at that place Mr. Alex McDonald,
entered as usual the jail yesterday morn
ing,; for the purpose of giving the prison
ers confined" there their breakfast. He
hadon him his pistol and as he always
does locked the door behrad him. While

Good Samaritans.
The Charlotte Observer says: About
ninety Good Samaritans and. Daughter
of Samaria, from Wilmington, arrived in
this city last evening, and marched up
Tryon street from the dopot, preceded by
a brass band. They have come to t par
ticipate in th celebration of the annlver
sary of the two lodges of this order in
this city to-day. ; "
TJie Parade Yesterday.
A fter all, defying the mclemenjalhcr, j
the Cadets of the . Cape Fear MUltary '
Academy, under command jf the Princi
pal, Maj. Burgess, concluded to braTO the
elements and parade yesterday afternoon
which they did to the delight of all be
holders. The little fellows (and some of
them are bigger than we are) presented a
splendid appearance. They were without
arms, but the precision with whfeb the
executed the marching movements called
forth many expressions of approval. ;
Fine Tobacco.
Attention is invited to 'the advertise-
r 1
meut of Mr. H Burkhimer as it appears
in this issue. He has just received a large
lot of beautiful tobacco, of approved
brands, which he is prepared to offer to the
trade, as well as to consumers, on very fa
vorable terms. Mr. Burkimer's estab
lishment is the oldest tobacco house in the
State and all who trade with him may
rest satisfied that everything will bo found
as represented.
U. S. District court.
The following cases were disposed of by
tho United States District Court this
morning:
N. B. Taylor, retailing liquor without
a license. Case continued.
Same for peddling also continued.
John Dodge, judgment nisi.
Peter Evans, col., retailing liquor with
out license. Guilty.
Chas. R. Lawton, embozzeling money
from Post Office at Magnolia. Submitted.
Francis Faulk, for distilling liquor
without giving proper bond. Acquitted.
A Decision Rendered.
The case of the Bank of New Hanover
vs. Williams, Black & Co., which, has
been pending in the Superior Court here
ever since last Thursday morning, was
brought to a decision here this morning
by a decision from the Bench in favor of
the defendants. Judgo Moore, in announc
ing ths decision, said in preface that he
would make no remarks on the merits of
the case but would simply find for the
defendants. The case will be appealed to
the Supreme Court. The amount involv
ed was originally but little less than
$3,000 but the interest and costs will
probably increase it to nearly $5,000.
The receipts of cotton.here today foot
