LOCAL AND GENERAL. a hundred converts in the revival at Zion Church. The graded school opens Monday. Bn sure and enter your children. Watermelons are still plentiful; pßjpons wanting chills and fever nmy buy them. A grand time is expected at the Industrial Fair in Raleigh, the sec offifl week in October. Everybody in Charlotte ought to take the Messenger. Don’t wait any longer, send in your name and take the paper. The members of Excelsior Lodge Good Samaritans are requested to attend meeting on Tuesday night, as business of mu«h importance is to be attended to. The people of the Gulf States are badly afflicted with the yellow fever; it is on the increase in Texas and Florida. It does not seem as fatal as we have known it. The following persons are dele gates to the county convention to day, from the city: First ward.—J. S. Thomason, A. B, Gillespie, Isaac Iluntlcy. Seoond ward.—J. T. Schenck, W. W. Jenkins, R. T. Weddington. Third ward.—A. B. North, 9. J, Caldwell, James Foster. Fourth ward.—James Steel, Wil liam Alexander, John Moore, Many ladies have asked for the names published for standing around the circus. Wo saw but few we knew and most of them had some excuse for being there: attending table, children or something. We would rather give the names of the ladies we saw riding piled upon a dray wagon riding to the depot the other day. They certainly were out of their placo and we hope they will not do the like again without some excuse. We did not say wo would publish the names but take them. We havo several besides those dodg ing behind Mrs. T’s table. Elder Tyler is having the most i interesting and successful revival had here for years. Many young men and women have been happily converted. The meeting goes on with unabated interest. Personals. Misses Ellen Gilbert. Lettie Paul and Mamie Lee, of Columbia, did not leave us ’till last Tuesday.— They were dissuaded from, going last Saturday, as was stated by the Messenqer. J. H. Williamson of the Baauur, was in our city this week in the in terest of the fair, but in consequence of the great religious excitement in the city, he did not lecture as was expected. He reports the fair booming. Miss Maria L. Williams, of Phila delphia, passed through our city on Wednesday, returning from Green ville, S. C-, where she has spent three or four weeks. Rev. D. J. Koontz, of the Luth eran Church, spent several days of this week in our city and preached for Elder Tyler on Thursday night. He will preach in Concord to-mor row. From the Charlotte Observer. Sheriff Alexander, accompanied by Frank Snider, Daniel Sceiders and Tom Griffith, as guards, left for Raleigh this morniDg with a batch of seven, prison ers for the State penitentiary. Os these prisoners two were sent from the Infe rior court and live from the Superior court. Those from the Inferior court are George Williams, colored, for lar ceny, sentenced to five years, and Am brose Caldwell, for larceny, sentenced to three years. Those sent from the Superior court are W. C. Hastings, white, for forgery, sentenced to three years; Emeline Springs, colored, for| manslaughter, two years; A- C. King; alias Swinson, white, for forgery, two years; Wm. Calvin, colored, larceny, ten years; John Bidding, colored, lar ceny, one year. Kev. Burwell Johnston, who was con victed of larceny and sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary by Judge Graves, succeeded yesterday, through a petition presented by his counsel, Maj. W. W. Flemming, in having his sen tence reduced to fiye years. Burwell is considering his privilege of taking as appeal to the Supreme Court and still remains in jail. Run Over and Killed. The Wilmington Eriew, of the Bth inst., says: A couple of colored hoys, aged 15 and 20 years, respect ively, wore run over and killed by the Western bound passenger train on the Carolina Central Railroad, on Wednesday night at Edwards’ Crossing, between Ro-indaie and Jarvis. The boys were is the em ploy of Mr. J. A. Edwards and left his house as the train blew for a wood station just below it. The train stopped to wood up and pro ceeded on its journey. Yesterday morning the Eastern bound passen ger train was flagged down at Ed wards’ Crossing so that the mangled bodies of the boys could be removed from the track. Their legs and arms were cut off by the train, and their bodies so horribly mangled that all who saw them were made sick by the terrible sight. The sup position is that the boys went out to see the train pass on Wednesday night and sat or laid down on the track while waiting for the train to leave the wood station, and feU asleep. They were doubtless in stantly killed by the train which passed over their bodies. MED. At his late residence in this city about 3 o’clock p. m., last Monday, Rot. Geo. W. Price. Mr. Price was pastor of the M. E. Church in this city and was greatly loved by his congregation and all who knew him. He was a good man, a hard Student and close observer. He leaves several children and a wife to mourn his loss. His remains were taken to Wilmington. He be longed to the order of Freemasons and the Knights of Wise Men. Peetkaf Esteffsa ■*.

Chaifrtito has a « of as good looking voaag ooiJorcd men as any town of ita size ia the Stale. They are as hoaesL, as isidaslrious and dress as w*H as aay and we believe are as wriJ behaved y-omag men as can be foe ad. Yet there is some thing dnradfodly needed about these jaogata giaaißj. We speak of them and to them in this way be cause we tawe them and are so forci bly impressed with the necessity of improvement in this direction. The greatest foiling we see in the young men of our city a they have too great love for pleasure and too kttle for learning. The greatest need about our young men is men tal improvemeah. This they can not do witfaoat forsaking their pleas ures, for two grand reasons: First with their minds given to sport they are ia no condition to study, and secondly, their sporting takes all their money and they have none left to hay hook* and pay a teacher. We have a number rtf intelligent young men, hat aot enough of them. We want more of the higher order and fewer of the boot-black and ser vant class. We want more young ■tea who will scorn to do little dime chores on the streets. Young men, who by their standing and general conduct will force- all men to respect them aa gentlemen. We want more yoaag men who will not be content to occupy the poation of their foth «i We want more young men who will select a good trade, an hon est aTocation ia which he can look apoa himself ns the equal of any man. To do, this wo must cultivate our minds and save our money. We must respect our women and our selves and we will be respected in spite of everything else. Our young men are doing well, but we think they might in some instances do better. The young men of Charlotte have the credit of running the most successful colored boarding house in the State, some of the best markets in the city, one of the best grocery stores, all the bar ber shops, a newspaper, and have some fine mechanics. Our best teachers and preachers are among our young men. Yet we want to see the masses looking higher. One third the money they waste would buy books and pay a‘teacher for night school, and one-half the time they spend in frolicing if spent in studying would be as bread cast upon the waters to be gathered af ter many days, to make them hap py in their old age. Now as the nights are getting longer let our young men look to their interests. How would it do to have a night school. Matamoras and Brownsville. Galveston, Sept. 14.—A special to the News, dated Matamoras September 13, says the epidemic at this point seems to have undergone but little change, there being a few scattering cases through the city, each section having 6 or 8. Yesterday’s report, up to 9a m, gives 3 deaths, 2 of fever, and to-day’s report gives 6 deaths, also 2 of fever. The river is very high and has inunda ted some houses in the suburbs, but no suffering is caused as yet The city is entirely surrounded by water. At Brownsville last week.tbere were 48 new cases and 24 deaths, and thus far this week there have been 187 cases and 9 deaths. Os these 117 cases and 3 deaths were reported for the 24 hours ending at 10 a m yesterday, and 42 cases and three deaths from that time to 10 a m to-day; 37 new cases are reported at Point IsabeL The relief committee are furnishing aid to about 300 persons, about three-fourths of the population.
