Three hundred and twenty-five sacks
of Guano just arrived.
A Cat Suckling a Squirrel.
Mr. John Chapin, of this county,
informa us that some four or five
weeks ago he found a young squirrel
in a nest in the woods and carrying
it home he placed it with the kittens
of an old cat, which has suckled it
and takes as much care it as if it was
one of her kittens.
Dwelling Burnt.
On last Thursday a dwelling house
on the plantation of Mr. Junius A.
Alston, of this county, was accident
ally burnt. The fire originated from
a defective chimney. The house was
a large two story building, formerly
occupied as a residence by Mr. Alston,
but latterly occupied by a tenant, and
was valued at not less than a thou
sand dollars. There was no insurance.
All Owl Poisoned.
Mr. J. B. Guthrie, of this county,
has recently had several geese killed
while they were setting, and one day
last week tie found one goose partly
eaten up, and placing some strych
nine on it he placed it back on the
nest, and next morning found a large
owl lying near it that measured four
feet and a half from tip to tip across
its wings. If all chicken thieves met
such summary treatment fowls would
be safer.
The Blackberry Crop.
We notice in several of our State
papers that the severe cold weather of
last winter has killed the blackberry
bushes in many sections. We have
made inquiry of several persons in this
county and are pleased to learn that
the blackberry bushes here were not
injured, and that we are likely to have
our usual full crop of the berries.
The blackberry crop of Chatham is
no small item among our products
and its destruction would be a serious
loss.
County Assessors.
At a special meeting of the county
commissioners held on the 16th inst.,
the following persons were appointed
Assessors of the different townships
of this county :
Albright Township W. A. Line
berry; Hadley Township J. E. Per
ry; Baldwin Township T. B. Farrar;
Williams Township C. R. Scott;
New Hope Township J. K. Gibson ;
Cape Fear Township W. S. Gun
ter; Oakland Township A. W. Wick
er; Gulf Township W. M. Thomas;
Matthews Township J. A. Houston;
Bear Creek Township J. W. Calder;
Hickory Mt. Township J. B. Gutb
rie; Centre Township J. A. Womack.
Our County Bonds.
As will be seen from an advertise
ment tmblished in another column
our county commissioners give notice
to all persons desirous of investing
in X 1 1 X it
u uur cuuiuy uouus to miorm mem
at or before their next meetinc. on
the first Monday in May, what amount
they will want These bonds will
bear six per cent interest, which will
be paid wromDtlv on the first Jav of
March every year, and one-tenth of
me principal will be paid annually lor
ten years. All these bonds ought to
be taken by citizens of this county,
and we hope will be, so tbat all this
money will be kept in circulation at
home and not be carried out of the
county. The bonds will be isflnpd in
denominations of one hundred.and five
nunared dollars.
These bonds will be a better invest
went than loaning money at a higher
uimieBL ana iSLKing a cnaitei
mortgage on a steer, as is the custom
with so many of our small capitalists.
If thereforA unv iflvn nf rViofVom
desires to securely invest, at a fair
rata .'.;.. . .
uue or more nundred dollars, let
mm buy our county bonds.
District Conference.
The annual session of the Hills-
boro District Conference of the M. E,
Church South, will be held at this
place, beginning on Thursday, July
4 th. A large attendance is expected
and it behooves our citizens to put
tnemselves in readiness for the prop
er entertainment of the delegates.
The last time the District Conference
was held here was in July, 1875.
Easter Monday.
Last Monday being Easter Mon
day was, as usual on that day, observ
ed as a general holiday by both white
and black, and many were the fishing
parties and picnics enjoyed by the
young folks. The weather was all
that could be wished for, being more
spring-like than any day this year,
and of course this added greatly to
the enjoyment of all.
Carried Over a Dam.
We learn that, on the 14th inst.,
Thomas Campbell and Jasper Moody,
of this county, attempted to cross
Kocky river in a boat at Brooks mill
pond, and were carried by the cur
rent over the dam and washed some
two hundred yards down the river,
where they caught an overhanging
bush or tree and succeeded in getting
out without any serious damage, but
in rather a moist condition. It is
said that, after so narrowly escaping
a watery grave, they aunounced them
selves in favor of prohibition.
Orange Presbytery.
The 222nd session of the Orange
Presbytery was held last week at
Chapel Hill, Rev. C. M. Miller pre
siding as Moderator. We learn from
a member of the Presbytery that the
session was remarkably pleasant, and
the delegates were most favorably
impressed with the hospitality of the
citizens of the village and with the
gentlemanly deportment of the Uni
versity students. The next session
will be held at High Point, beginning
on the 28th of October. We are
pleased to learn that Rev. P. R. Law
and Junius A. Alston, Esq., of this
county were elected as two of the
four commissioners or delegates to
represent this Presbytery at the next
General Assembly to be held at Staun
ton, Va., on the 19th of May.
The Match Game.
For sometime past the members of
the Sylvan and Pittsboro baseball
clubs have been anxiously looking
forward to the match game that had
been agreed to be pla-ved by them on
Easter Monday. Both clubs had
been diligently practising, and both
no doubt were hopeful of success and
yet fearful of defeat. Quite a large
crowd of men, women and children
assembled to witness the game, to
many of whom it was something en
tirely new. After six innings had been
played the score stood eighteen for the
Pittsboro club and three for the Syl
van. un tne seventn inning tne ovl-
van boys went to the bat and made
two runs, and after the Pittsboro
boys had made one run the playing
was stopped, and the game decided
in favor of the latter. There were
some excellent players in each club,
and the game was watched with much
interest.
State News.
Kinston Journal: The "Stock Law"
for FalliDg creek township and a
portion of Kinston township is npw
in force. We confidently predict a
prosperous future for the farmers in
this section.
Farmer & Mechanic: In Little
River Township Wake county, on
the farm of C. M. Horton, there is a
chinquepin tree 19 feet iu circum
ference, two feet above the ground,
and another feet in diameter and
55 feet high.
Winston Leader: Among the arri
vals at the Winston Hotel recently
was a newly married couple, from
Mecklenburg county. The young
groom came to place his bride in the
Salem Female Academy. She is now
attending that institution.
Winston Leader: A colored man
by the name of Jerry Snow, living
near GermaDton, has feet that are of
some dimensions in this country.
His shoes are 14i inches long and
14$ inches in the instep. He would
make a splended stump speaker he
would cover so much ground.
The Hickory Press tells of a lady
who died a short time since, and says;
"She was born on Sunday, married on
Sunday, her oldest and youngest
children were born on banday, and
she had long had a presentment hat
she would die on Sunday. She wps
a most estimable lady. She was
about 62."
Tarboro Southerner: Last week
the residence and outhouses of Mrs.
Lem Aldredge, about eight miles
from Kinston, were consumed by the
fire demon. The dwelling caught
from a spark and the fire was com
municated to the other buildings.
The loss is about $3,000. No in
surance. Charlotte Democrat : It is very re
markable that a man who lives eighty
five years should die in the same
room in which he was born. The
Fayetteville Examiner says that was
the case with Col. Samuel T. Haw
ley, who recently died in Fayetteville.
He was a good and upright man in
all his ways.
Robesonian: Meredith Gaddy, a
colored man, residing about 7 miles
from town came in some time ago
after a load of corn, (10 bushels)
driving a diminutive specimen of the
quandom bull. On the way home
the ox crave out several times and
when within about two miles of his
destination, Meredith becoming im
patient, took the animal oat, and
adiustinfif the yoke to his own
neck drew the load to his home.
Though his wife has already borne
21 childreu it would seem that there
is life in the old land yet.
Franklin Times: The dwelling
house of Mr. M. Woodlief, of Youngs
ville, this county, was destroyed by
hre on Thursday night of last week.
His family came near being burned,
as it was in the dead hour of night
when the fire was discovered. Noth
ing was saved, except two feather
beds. Loss about $2,000 with no in
surance. Southern Home: During our visit
at Union Court, at Monroe, we noticed
a bale of cotton, in front of the Court
House weighing 810 pounds, put up
by Mr. W. W. Walkup, and pressed
by the recent invention of Mr. R. P.
Davis. The bale was one half foot
less than an ordinary size 450 pound
bale, 9 feet around the tie, and
pressed by one small mule.
Fayetteville Examiner: The two
Steam Boat Companies which navi
gate the Cape Fear River between
this place and Wilmington, have
taken the contract for the transpor
tation up the river of the iron which
is to lay the track of the C. F. & Y.
Y. Railway between Egypt and
Greensboro. This with the usual
business will give full employment to
all the boats this Spring.
Moore Gazette : We learn that down
about Blue's Crossing and Keyser
the eagles are proving a perfect pest.
They are to be seen in numbers, of
large size: and are not only des
troying the birds and rabbits, but
are playing havoc with pigs and
young lambs. The habits of the
eagle are to dwell in the desolate
pine regions in that section, and
thence swoop to some settlement or
habitation for his prey.
Charlotte Observer. An engineer
had to get off his train near the
Trade street crossing of the North
Carolina Railroad yesterday, and
remove a man from the track
who was so drunk as not to know
where he was. He stood stupidly
staring at the approaching train,
making no efforts to leave the track,
and must have been run over before
the train could have been stopped,
had it not been running at a slow
rate of speed.
Granville Free Lance: Ioformatioo
has reached us of another awful death
caused by overindulgence in alcohol.
It seems that one Sidney Falkner
left Henderson on Friday evening
last for his home in Franklin county,
with a load of guano. He was said
to have been very much under the
influence of liquor, and, when about
6ix mues irotn nenaerson, was
thrown from his wagon, the wheels
running over his head and fracturing
bis skull, besides inflicting other ter
rible wounds. He was killed almost
instantly.
Raleigh Visitor 15th: The election
in accordance with the provisions of
the act to establish the county of
Durham, took place on yesterday.
The result is as follows: Total vote
cast 2,031, of which 1737 were given
for the county and 294 against it.
The portion of Wake included in the
new county voted 282 for and 47
against it. The county of Durham
is now an established fact and we
stand ready to " shake hands across
the bloody chasm" and exclaim with
Rip Van Winkle "here's health to
yourself and families."
Newbernian: There are now twelve
inexhaustable artesian wells in this
city. We learn it is the intention of
oar authorities to double this number.
The Irish potato crop in this section
bids fair to be by far the largest that
was ever housed. Hundreds of acres
planted in potatoes, and the indica
tions now are, that the yield will be
enormous. Fish are becoming a lit
tle more plentiful in our market than
they have been of late. Shad are still
a little scarce as compared with other
seasons, but plentiful is no name for
herrings. The seines are catching
all that can be wished, while each in
coming boat is loaded to the gunwales.
Raleigh Visitor : We announced on
yesterday that little "Jessie,, eldest
daughter of our esteemed fellow
citizen, M. T. Norris, Esq., had a
peanut which she vr&a eating, to lodge
in her windpipe. Since that time the
child has been suffering the most in
tense agony accompanied with the
greatest difficulty in breathing. All
the efforts of some of our ablest phy
sicians proved fruitless to dislodge
the nut, and finally an operation or
a painful character was undertaken
as a last resort, but without favorable
result. The child lingered until
about 1 o'clock this morning when
death put an end to its suffering.
Fayetteville Examiner: At Smiley 's
Falls, on the Cape Fear River, twenty
miles above Fayetteville, is one of
the largest water powers in North
Carolina. The whole volume of
water in the xiver runs rapidly for
three miles down an inclination,
creating by its fall a power, es
timated by Jfrofessor Jl-.rr, to be
equal to that of 15,000 horses. By
canalling around the Falls this power
may be utilized for manufacturing
purposes, and we are informed on
good anthority, that the topography
of the place is extremely favorable to
this object. The total power em
ployed at Lowell and Lawrence,
Massachusetts, is estimated by Pro-
fesser Kerr at 9,000 horse power.
Statssville Landmark: It is said in
Washington City, that our fellow
countyman, Col. T. N. Cooper, will
not get the Marshalship of this dis
trict, but that if Douglass is turned
out, his place will be given to Col.
Oliver H. Dockery. Judge cloud
wants a nost-tradersbip or something
so, away out West in Wyoming or
Indian Territory. He doesn't know
exactilv what he wants, and indeed,
doesn't care much: what he cares
most ior is the locality, and he doesn't
altogether know where that is. He
has merely understood that there is
some kind of a vacancy "somewhar
out thar whar thar are plenty of bars
and black tail deero. u mere is
really any kind of a vacancy in any
such inviting country his ex-honor
wants it and wants it baa.
Charlotte Observer: About eight
months ago Winfield, the little six
year old son of Mr. John A. Young,
Jr., suffered a severe attack of mem
braneous croup and only recovered
from it to lose his power of articula
tion to such a degree that he could
not speak above a whisper. The
family were very much troubled
about the Utile fellow's misfortune,
but had at length become resigned to
it, when the other day he was having
a romp in very high glee, and, upon
making a jump from a high table
to the floor, broke out in a fit of loud
laughter, at which he himself was
very much frightened. He followed
up the discovery of his regained
faculty of his own accord, however.
News and Observer 17th: Yesterday
the sale of the National Hotel and its
contents was begun. The hotel with
that portion of the square on which
it stands, fronting en Edenton street
210 feet, and on Salisbury and Hali
fax streets 188 feet, was purchased
by the State of North Carolina, the
sum paid being $13,000 and was
bought for the use ef the Agricultural
Department. There will be, besides,
ample room for the accommodation
of the Supreme Court, and probably
the State Library, whenever it shall
be deemed advisable to transfer them
from their present cramped quarters
in the capitol.
Durham Recorder: Last Sunday,
Mr. J. S. Carr, Supt. of the Metho
dist Sunday School, announced that
there was a chinaman in N. C. who
had been converted and wished to be
educated, and sent back to China
as a Missionary to his people; and he
proposed that the Sunday School
educate this man and send him back.
Mr. Carr stated that Trinity College
would take him for his board, and a
collection was taken up, when the
school responded to the tune of $101,
00, each class giving so much. This
U already sufficient to school one
year and a half.
Statesville Landmark: Mrs. Bettie
Lackey, of Sharpe's township, Alex
ander county, has a turkey hen that
is a wonder in the way of egg-laying.
She commences layiDg in the spring
and continues until she has enough
eggs to set on, and while she is set
ting hor nest has to be watched
every day to keep the newly laid egg
from spoiling. After she hatches,
and while raising ber brood, she
keeps right on laying until the
feathers all come off her, and in the
dead of winter has to be wrapped up
to keep her frcm freezing to death.
The truth of this story is vouched
for by Mrs. Lacky and by persons of
the neighborhood whose veracity can
not be questioned.
Wilmington Star: Intelligence was
received here yesterday of a very
distressing occurrence at Whiteville,
Columbus county. On Sunday mor
ning last, about 9 o'clock, Capt. W. J.
Stanley, a prominent lawyer of that
place, requested his wife to leave the
room in which they happened to be
at the time, and !she complied, soon
after which she heard the pop of a
cap in the room she had left. She
hurried to the door and tried to open
it, when she found that it was locked
from the inside, and while vainly en
deavoring to unfasten the bolt she
was shocked by the report of a pis
tol in the room where she had just
parted from her husband. She gave
the alarm and a crowd soon collected,
when the door was forced open and
Capt. Stanley was found prostrate
upon the floor, weltering in his blood,
which was flowing freely from a wound
in the temple; and, upon examination,
it was found that he was quite dead,
while a large navy pistol was lying
by bis side. Capt. Stanley is repre
sented to have been a man of some
considerable means, was in no wise
pressed financially, his domestic re
lations were of the most pleasant
character, and the only cause that
can be assigned for the desperate
deed is the course of dissipation upon
which he had entered, particularly
during the last two or three years of
his life.
Rich Darkey Dead.
(New York Herald, 18th.)
"Uncle Thomas," the veteran brush
boy of the Grand Pacific Hotel in
Chicago, who died last Thursday
leaving an estate valued at from $30,-
uuu to $ ou,uuu, was yesterday ounea
with simple honors at Oakwood. He
was born in Virginia some time about
the opening of the present century
and has been a well known character
in Chicago since the war times.
